Fav. Food: Classic American Cheeseburger
Hated Food: Shellfish, especially shrimp. They look too much like bugs. Anything that has to be soaked in butter to taste good isn't worth it.
Occupation: Contract Pilot and Aerobatic Performer with an extreme sports sponsorship. Former U.S. Air Force Pilot.
Hobbies: Aerobatic Flying — Eli has never quite lost the thrill he first felt when learning how to fly. While he still works professionally as a pilot, he spends much of his free time flying aerobatic aircraft and practicing complex maneuvers that push both his skill and the aircraft itself. Where others might see risk, Eli sees possibility. To him, the sky has never stopped being a playground.
Skydiving and Wingsuiting — Eli began skydiving after leaving the military and quickly fell in love with the feeling of freefall. What started as an adrenaline rush became a serious hobby. He now has hundreds of jumps under his belt and occasionally participates in wingsuit flights with other experienced divers.
Aircraft Restoration — Eli enjoys getting his hands dirty almost as much as he enjoys flying. He has a deep appreciation for older aircraft and spends time helping restore vintage planes or tinkering with engines. To him, understanding how a plane works is part of respecting the machine.
Virtues: Adaptable — Pilots rarely get perfect conditions, which means Eli is used to adjusting on the fly. Whether dealing with unpredictable weather, mechanical problems, or sudden changes in plans, he's comfortable improvising and finding alternate solutions.
Protective — Despite his reputation for risk taking, Eli takes responsibility for the people around him very seriously. If someone is in his care, whether it be in the cockpit or in life, he will prioritize their safety without hesitation.
Encouraging — Eli has an easygoing sort of confidence that puts people at ease. He's naturally supportive of others, especially when they're trying something new. He is the kind of person who will cheer someone on when they're nervous and help them believe they can do more than they thought possible.
Flaws: Risk Taker — Eli has a tendency to push boundaries, especially when flying. While his skill often justifies his confidence, he has a tendency to flirt with danger more than most would consider comfortable. It's not that he doesn't recognize danger, he just believes he can handle it.
Restless — Eli struggles with staying in one place for too long. Routine and stillness make him feel trapped, which makes it difficult for him when it comes to things with long-term stability like jobs, relationships, and even living arrangements.
Avoidant — Eli tends to brush off serious conversations with jokes or charm, especially when the topic turns emotional or uncomfortable. It's not that he doesn't care, it's just easier for him to laugh something off than to work through heavier feelings.
